Well, if you are coming across this blog post, my left-brain worked! I decided to move my blog over from WordPress.com to a WordPress.org hosted site. There were quite a few details involved, and it will take a bit of tweaking, but the basics are done. (Yay!) I won’t explain all the details, since the few people I tried to do that to told me all they heard was blah, blah, blah, blah… and I figured if you are looking at my art/photo blog you are probably not that interested in the details.
The main reason for my change is that I wanted to be able to have ads eventually and monetize my blog a bit (I have to support my art career somehow! 
) and I was not allowed to do that on WordPress.com. Since I am writing more about my painting process I would like to have links to books I like so that they are easy to find and purchase. And we will see where else this blog adventure takes me.
Stay tuned for links & info to my favorite things I like to use for my art. I may do a special page, not sure yet. This is definitely a work in progress.
looks pretty good so far!
hey, i’ll be interested in the details! maybe do a post a bit later just on that (for the us art-geeks that are interested)
best wishes, should be good for you!
Good job! I’ve been in transition to a WordPress.org site for a while now… You are inspiring me to complete the process!! – db
it was not as hard as it seemed. It just some serious concentration and “bravery” on my part!
And the videos working me through it really helped!
Greta, Your art blog is looking great! You are such an inspiration!
Thank you Maria!!
